Chapter 1026 Counterattack

"Da Da Da..."

The flames of the machine guns were particularly bright at night. Read

Guan Tong was not worried at all when he saw the fleeing Piao Man soldiers showing signs of turning back. Instead, he became excited.

If the Piao Man soldiers only made a tentative attack and retreated after being frustrated, he would be disappointed.

Going all out is what he wanted.

"General, you really guessed the other party's mind this time. They are trying their best to drive us into the swamp tonight." Yan Heng grinned, like a hunter who saw the prey fall into a trap.

Guan Tong smiled triumphantly, "Then we won't be polite. Let's see how long they can hold out. By the way, let the generals prepare for the pursuit. This time we will annihilate them in one fell swoop."

"Yes, General." Yan Heng looked excited and turned away.

Then, Guan Tong looked at the charging Piao Man soldiers again.

Under their counterattack, the 500 elephant soldiers of the Piao Man died, and those who survived ran around everywhere, which caused a lot of chaos for the Piao Man army.

Now it was only the Piao Man infantry that charged at them.

These Piao Man infantry were numerous, and everyone held a long knife and rushed towards them densely, with the gap between each soldier less than two meters.

Such a dense formation became a target for machine guns.

Although they continued to fight, they still could not break through the short 200 meters.

However, there were also Piao Man soldiers who rushed into 50 meters.

At this time, the soldiers of the Suzaku Army immediately used grenades to kill the enemy and killed these approaching Piao Man soldiers.

The fierce charge and counterattack lasted for half an hour, and the bodies of the Piao Man soldiers covered the battlefield.

After that, their attack suddenly stopped, as if they had received an order.

This order was issued by Yong Ya.

In just half an hour of charging, they paid the price of 60,000 deaths.

The most important thing is that even though so many people died, they still did not cause any damage to the defense line of the Suzaku Army.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now? Obviously, the thing that can fly up to the sky and illuminate is the firearm of the Dasong Army." A general of the Piaoman asked nervously.

"And the musket that can shoot continuously is too terrible, otherwise we would not have lost so many soldiers in half an hour." Another person said.

"I think the Dasong Army was not fooled, but deliberately took advantage of the situation."

"..."

The generals said one thing after another, and Yong Ya became more and more irritated.

He roared, "Shut up all of you."

His chest rose and fell violently, and he said angrily, "What should we do? What else can we do! Now you know how powerful the Dasong Army is. We can't beat them in a night attack. How can we fight the next battle!"

The generals were silent.

Yong Ya said the truth. The current Dasong Army is too terrifying, even more terrifying than the Frankish army at the time.

Back then, they surrendered because they were afraid of the Frankish muskets and artillery.

Now, the muskets and artillery of Dasong are more terrible than those of the Franks.

This battle cannot be fought at all. After a whole sneak attack, they are just like committing suicide.

"Are you all dumb?" The generals did not speak, and Yong Ya became even more annoyed.

Dasong is the enemy of the Piao Man. They thought that they could take revenge and eat up Dasong with the help of the Westerners.

Now it is the other way around.

If they cannot annihilate this Dasong army, Dasong will definitely eat up the Piao Man.

What to do?

He struggled violently in his heart.

Even if 60,000 people died, he still had 340,000 people available. Would he let this opportunity go?

"There are only two ways to go now. One is to charge again, and the second is not to fight with the Dasong army, but to join the Westerners and fight with the Dasong army together with the Westerners." After thinking for a while, Yong Ya proposed two solutions.

After a pause, he turned to the generals, "Which one should we choose?"

"If we continue to fight, we will only increase casualties. It's not appropriate. Let's choose the second one." A general hesitated for a while and said.

"But the time we spent looking for the Western Alliance is enough for the Dasong army to seize the entire territory of our Piao Man country. If the Westerners betray us at that time, we will be homeless." Another general said.

"This war was originally the idea of ​​the Westerners. They are determined to eliminate the King of Yan and will not betray us."

"But if we miss this opportunity, I'm afraid the Westerners will look down on us."

"..."

The Piao Man generals argued for a while and quarreled.

Yong Ya was also a little embarrassed. He looked at the camp of the Dasong army and was itching with hatred.

Just when the Piao Man generals were discussing how to act next.

Seeing that the Piao Man was slow to attack, Guan Tong and the generals discussed for a while and decided to take the initiative to launch a pursuit.

If the Pi Man can attack them at night, why can't they attack the Pi Man at night?

Besides, it's just midnight now, and there are still three hours before dawn.

At the same time, this is also their plan.

Guan Tong asked Yan Heng to prepare for this matter.

"The Pi Man retreated, we chased them, and we must not let them leave here easily." Guan Tong said loudly.

After a pause, he continued, "The next pursuit depends on the situation. If the Pi Man does not withdraw and continues to stay in the camp, then we will counter-encircle and bypass the Pi Man army to the north, and force them to the big swamp. If they withdraw, we will bite them and chase them to the end."

"Yes, General." Yan Heng and the other two responded at the same time.

After deciding this matter, the general of the Suzaku Army ordered the scouts to go in first, and they led the troops to follow behind.

Since the two sides were about ten miles apart, the scouts reached the vicinity of the Piao Man camp in about two quarters of an hour.

Because the attack had just been frustrated, the scattered Piao Man soldiers were still in shock. The Piao Man army seemed to be in chaos, and the camp was still in a mess.

Observing this situation, the scouts immediately fed back the intelligence.

Knowing that the Piao Man army was still there, Guan Tong was excited and ordered the army to go around from the flank and touch the back of the Piao Man camp. At the same time, he deployed troops on both wings to prevent the Piao Man army from escaping.

While the Suzaku Army was taking action, the Piao Man generals and Yong Ya finally reached an agreement, that is, to launch another attack.

If this attack failed, they would choose to join the Western Land Coalition.

After deciding this, the Piao Man generals immediately reorganized the army and prepared to charge the Dasong army camp.

After preparing for two quarters of an hour, the Piao Man general led a 100,000-strong army to the south.

But when they approached the Dasong army camp, they suddenly felt something was wrong.

After a careful look, they found that the Dasong army had disappeared.

This shocked them.

"Oh no, something is going to happen." A Piu Man general immediately realized something.

The location of their camp was surrounded by open plains.

If the Dasong army took the opportunity to go around behind them, then not only would they not force them into the Great Swamp, they would be forced into the Great Swamp instead.
